Answer 1

The symbols of elements are usually derived from the Latin or Greek synonyms. This is done to avoid the confusion with the English names. ... Similarly, sulfur is a Latin word that means to burn and in English language, it is renamed as sulphur and thus the initial letter of the word is used as the symbol for sulfur.
